ZEBRA AS A SADDLE HORSE.

King Ed vr aril lias Broken One of the Animals and Will Use It. Zebras as carriage hori s and for , ridin purposes may soon be a common siht, for a recent experiment at the London Zoo has demonstrated that these beautifully striped animals can be easily tamed, and that they are even more docile and easily managed, when broken in, than the gentlest of ordinary horses, says Clack and White. After spending four hours in breaking in a zebra Captain Horace Hayes Is able to ride it handily. His first pupil was -Ti-nnie, a niney oar-old zebra, presented to King Edward by the Emperor Menelik, of Abyssinia. When first led itto the paddock she was fidgety and nervous. In order to soothe her, Captain Hayes stroked her gently with a long rod. She stood quite still during this proceeding, seeming not to resent it in the least. ISut when a ran a approached her with a halter she plunged and reared, racing madly around and around the paddock. Presently she quieted down, i?nd the trainer got near enough to slip a rope around her right leg. She tried to kick it loose, but in doing so she got her left leg entangled in it. She was thrown forward on her front legs in a kneeling position, on her side. Her four legs were then bound with ropes until she was utterly helpless. For an hour she was left In this plight, then the ropes were removed from her feet, and she got up a meek and submissive creature. She stood still while a bit was placed in her mouth and a saddle strapped to her back. Captain Hayes climbed into the saddle, and Jennie consented to be ridden. She makes an excellent ad3!e horse, intell'gent, fast and thoroughly to be relied upon. Shoutinjr Their Praises. Friarpoint. Miss., Aug. 22. Special.) Cured of Bladder and Kidney Trouble nf ter 2G years of suffering. Rev. II. II. Hatch, of this place, is telling the public the good news and shouting the praises of the remedy that cured him Dodd's Kidney rills. Rev. Mr. Hatch says: I have been suffering from Bladder and Kidney Trouble for 20 years and I have tried everything that people said would do me good. But nothing did me any good except Dotld's Kidney Tills. "I haven't felt a pain since I took Todd's Kidney Pills. They gave me health ami I feci like a new man altoget her. Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best I ever had." All Urinary and Bladder Troubles are caused by diseased kidneys. The natural way to cure them is to cure the kidneys. Iodds Kidney Tills never fail to cure diseased kidneys in any stage or place. They always cure Backache and they are the only remedy that CTer cured Bright's Disease. Has Rare Luck in Books. A University of Pennsylvania professor becamo sidetracked from a discussion of Ilobbe's ethics the other day and started to tell the boys something about the coincidences that had come under his notice. "This morning," said he, "one of ray friends who had been rummaging about some old university documents came across a stack of old Philadelphia newspapers published during the 40s and 50s. The papers themselves were very interesting, but the most striking point was the date of the first paper I picked up. It was dated April 20, 1S42 just sixty-two years ago to the day. "It reminded me somewhat of a friend of mine who was an enthusiastic collector of old books. She has an immense library of rare volumes and finds pleasure in picking up rare prints in the course of her travels. Three years ago she purchased a set of old Shawspearein quartos while in Holland. The set lacked one volume and for this reason was sold at a remarkably low figure. "Last February, while my book-collecting friend was visiting in Ohio, she happened to run across an old bookshop. After glancing through the musty old volumes she found the very quarto, same binding and size, that had been missing from her Holland pur chase. She looked at tLe flyleaf and was amazed to find on it the same signature that wa? inscribed in the sister volumes of the collection. Of course the bought the book immediately." Philadelphia Telegraph. AS EASY Needs Only a Little Thinking. The food of childhood often decides whether one is to grow up well nourished and healthy or weak and sickly from improper food. It's just as easy to be one as the other, provided we get a proper start. A wise physician like the Denver doctor who knew about food can accomplish wonders, provided the patient is willing to help and will eat only proper food. Speaking of this ease, the mother aid her little four-year-old boy was suffering from a peculiar derangement of the stomach, liver and kidneys, and his feet became so swolllen he couldn't take a step. "We called a doctor, wCo said at once we must be very careful as to his diet, as improper foo was the only cause of his sickness. Sugar, especially, he forbid. "So the doctor made up a diet and the principal food he prescribed was Grape-Nuts, and the boy, who was Tery fond of sweet things, took the Grape-Nuts readily, without adding any sugar. (Doctor explained that the sweet in Grape-Nuts is not at all like cane or beet sugar, but Is the natural sweet of the grains.) "We saw big improvement inside a few days, and now Grape-Nuts are almost hi3 only food, and he Is once more a healthy, happy, rosy-checked youngster, with every prospect to grow -up Into a strong, healthy man." Name given by Tostum Cereal Co., Battle Creek, Mich. The sweet in Grape-Nuts is the Nature-sweet known as Tost Sugar, not digested in the liver like ordinary sugar, but predigested. Feed the youngsters a handful of Grape-Nuts when Nature demands sweet an1 prompts them to call for sugar. There's a reason. Get the little book "The Road to Wellville in each package.

TOULTRY NOTES. Treatment of diseases should begin arith the first symptoms. Sour milk and butter milk are both ;ood to mix with soft food. Mix powdered charcoal and sulphur )Ccasionally with the soft feed. Coal oil applied to the roosts in small quantities will kill parasites. The flesh of birds differ in quality iccording to the food oa which they !.?ed. Too constant setting makes the ions of had disposition and difficult to nanage. The poultry quarters should be horoughly whitewashed inside and ut frequently. Furnish as great a variety of diet is possible and feed as much as the 'owls will eat. Do not hatch bantams until Utc in lie summer if . you would have them :eautiful and diminutive. I,itt!e chicks have "no teeth and aiust have sand, crushed bone, sheJl ind charcoal in some form. Lousy hens are the couse of much lability, sickness and death among lie young broods they hatch out. The laying of soft-shelled eggs sometimes results from overfeeding ind sometimes from lack of shell ma:erial. One of the great secrets in poultry äising is to get good laying strains and keep them in good health and ndition. If chickens are allowed on the roosts too young, their breasts often Set crooked and their growth and appearance spoiled Much of the disease to which fowls

ire afflicted may be traced for its j expenses, as well as the cost of proDrigin to a neglect in not providing j duction, before he decides upon the

Zood ventilation. While growing chicks can hardly be Dver-fed so long as they eat up clean vliat is given them, liens are easily tnade too fat. If there is any mode of determining . rhe sex of eggs the fact has neVer been demonstrated to the satisfaction "f good breeders. VETCH AS A COVER CROP. Those who believe in the winter rover crop and the summer cultivation for young orchards and who have not found rye aad similar crops satisfactory should try sand or hairy vetch. The writer has used it for two winters with entire satisfaction, and its hardiness makes it especially valuable in cold sections. Our method was to sow the seed at the rate of Vz busbels an acre, after plowing under a good coat of fertilizer. The orchard had had the summer cultivation up to the last week in July, when the seeding was done. In. warm sections, south of the 42d degree, sowing could be delayed until the middle of August. At the close cf the growing season in the fall the vetch had formed a thick carpst of green about three inches tall, a perfect protection to the young roots of the tree. The first season we let it ripen during the summer, but thought thi3 drew too heavily on the soil, so now wo plow under the crop of vetch in May and start in at once oa the summer cultivation, sowing the vetch crop again in summer at the time indicated. In this way tne crop is grown for the benefit of the trees, which is as it should be. The sand vetch is worth experimenting with, and particularly for the young orchard going into its first winter. INOCULATING THE GROUND. To inoculate sterile ground and make it bring fort'h fruit in abundance is one of the latest achieve- ; ments of American science, says the National Geographic Magazine. Some of man's most dread diseases smallpox, diphtheria, plague, Tables have been vanquished by inoculation, and now inoculation is to cure soil that ! 1 A A. A I nas Deen worn out ana mane u teruie and productive again. The germs that bring fertility are mailed by the Department of Agriculture in a small package like a yeast cake. The cake containe millions of dried germs. The farmer who receives the cakes drops it Into a barrel of clean water; the germs are revived and soon turn the water to a milky white. Seeds of clover, peas, alfalfa or other leguminous plants that are then soaked in this milky preparation are endowed with marvelous strength. Land on which, for instance, the farmer with constant toil had obtained alfalfa only, a fewinches high, when planted with these inoculated seeds will produce alfalfa several feet high and so rich that the farmer does not recognize his crop. HAY RATION FOR A HORSE. Prof. Kennedy replies to a correspondent of the Drovers' Journal who had asked tiow long a ton of good clover or timothy hay would feed , a horse under ordinary circumstances: "Our-correspondent can very easily figure out just how long a ton of hay will feed a horse, providing he has the weight of the animal. Horses of different sizes require different amounts of-tay. As a general rule, most men feed too much hay to their iorsos. A horse weighing 1.200 pounds should not have over 12 to 13 pounds per day, thus one ton would feed such an animal about 160 to 165 days. A horse weighing 1,500 to 1,600 pounds should not have over 15 to 1C pounds per day. thus it is very easy to figure out the length of time a ton woum ieeu an ammai oi mis 3ize. j l i . , clover, provided It wa3 cut at the proper season and thoroughly cured, Should give very good results. Timothy is preferred to clover for feeding driving horses, due to the fact that it is considered to be more snbstantial. On the other hand, clover hay Is preferable for fattening horses." THE BEST DREED. Which is the b:st breed of cattl

is a question frequently asked. Th9 best breed depends. on what Is expected of it. If choice sterrs are to be raised for market, and whic'u are to grow rapidly, produce carcasses that will command excellent prices, and at the lowest cost, use the beef breeds. If milk and butter are the objects the beef qualities should not be sought. It is not difficult to learn, at tho present day, how and where to' procure tho best breed of milk and butter producers, but in so doing aim to secure not only t'ae breed, hut choice animals of the breed. If a beginning is mada with the best the more rapid will be the progress to success, as there are inferior animals even among the pure-bred ones. An extra dollar or two expended at the start will return four-fold in the future.

FEEDING THE TIGS. The time has passed when a swill barrel was considered a necessary adjunct to the keeping cf pigs. No food was filthier than that from the swill barrel, and the pigs were compelled to accept food that had undergone fer mentation until it was sour, but which was a mass of disease germs. The invention of the cream separator has worked changes in the feeding of swine. It is now cheaper to give tha fresh skim milk to the pigs than to attempt to keep it, and the ground grain is thus more easily fed at the same time. FARM PROFITS. The profits of a farm are usually more than the actual cash received for produce. The farmer takes his Jiving luuniiH ul me piuiu. i lie ineriiiani takes only the difference between the buying and selling price, less the cost of the transaction, and then lives on the profit. The question of "Does the farm pay?"' depends largely upon what is taken from it other than the cash received. nni.m 9 rri 1 A. A RICH SOIL. Land that has been seeded to crimson clover and the croi) turned under, has been found to contain twice as much humus, moisture and nitrogen as that which had no clover. This demonstrates that it pays to grow crimson clover as a manurial crop. Leaving out the gain of nitrogen entirely, tho large amount of extra moisture retained by the clover land is an important gain when considering the next crop to be grown on the plot. NOT A FLAW. The Drummer Tells a Story That Runs The Gauntlet All Right. A half dozen travelling men were waiting in an Indian town station the other evening for a train for Chicago. A fierce storm was raging. "This i-s a sorry night to be cn the road," remarked the shoe drummer. " Yes," said the cigar man, "and it was just such a night as tids ;ist summer when a train cn the road struck a bad place four miles eat of here and the next instant ran eff the bridge. I was the only passenger on the train to escape with his life." "What month was that in?"' he was asked. "Latter part of July" "I fail to recall that wreck," said one of the crowj. "So do I," said another. "How many did ycu say were killed?" asked the shoe drummer. Didn't say any one was killed," replied the cigar man. iou didn t, en: ion said vou wcrc the cny passon;cr who cscap?i with his life." "Certainly! That's easily accounted for," explained the cigar man, 13 dicing innocent. "I was the only passen ger on the train." "Aha! That's your game is it?" said the shoe drummer. "Hold on there!" said the only one in the party who hid not spoken up to this time, as he bustled up in front of the cigar man. "You said the train struck a bad place In the roai." "So it did, but it go over it all right." "It did eh? But how about running off the bridge," That's all right. We ran off after we had crossed it. The story is all right, boys. You can't find any flawin it." Chicago Inter Ocean. Vegetarian Colony in Kansas. The remark by an Allen county papr about high water in Vegetarian Creek recalls the circumstances of a curious eol'eny located in the valley of tnis creek in 185G. It was composed cf about one hundred persons gathered from different parts of the East, and all were members cf the cult devoted to a vegetable diet. In joining the colony the members were required to make the pledge that they would refrain from the use of meat, tea, coff'ie, tobacco and other forms cf stimulant and live entirely on vegetables and fruits. During the first year, however, there was a great deal cf sickness among the colonists and it was observed that the neighboring people who ate everything which came to hand were healthier by far. Not unnaturally this discouraged the doctrine of vegetables alone, and many left the cc-lony, while others recanted. Of the whole colony the . .n Q ho lio mory is Capt. s j. Stewart, state Senator from the Allen county dis trict, and owner still of the original claim which he took in 1S3G. The remaining memento of the settlement .is the name Vegetarian Creek, given to tae stream along which the colonists, settled. Kansas City Journal. .

5f!' ff2Ll5MX?JD in ' I A w Lr V ei-; THE PIANO AS A SIDEBOARD. Ingenious, indeed, is the suggestion of a woman who has had her square piano turned into a sideboard for her dining room. "Have a cabinet-maker take the cover off and the works out." she says, "then have him. finish off the top flush with the sides. Have the interior fitted with one or two shallow drawers, and have a cupboard arranged below, where the legs come. I had my old moth box treated this way and the result is a mahog?.ny sideboard far handsomer than anything I could have afforded to buy." BURLAP AS A WALLPAPER. There's no denying the utility and beauty of burlap as a wall covering. It may even be fire-proofed! It is sanitary, too, as compared with materials that have to be tacked up. It is so backed that it may actually bo stuck up and so become practically a part of the wall, quite like wall paper. This is a virtue not possessed by delicate brocades. Besides, burlap is an effective background for pictures, statuary and the like. Its plainness and roughness are vbeth greatly in its favor. Though nov elty may not bo claimed tor it, it lias more than enough other virtues to make up. AIR-TIGHT CANNING. To put up corn, string beans or peas by the air-tight process use the following method: After cleaning corn, take a sharp knife and slice off about two-thirds of tho corn, then with the back of the blade scrape off the kernels that are left on the cob. Fill the jar about one-third full, then pack gently. A potato masher will do for this. Then put in more corn and paclt again until the jar is full. Put on 'the rubber and screw the top on very tight. Put some straw in the wash boiler and oa it put the jars. Fill the boiler with cold water and bring to a boil. Boil three hours. When you take the jars out, screw the tops tighter stili. it possible, and wrap each jar in paper and keep in a cool place. Succotash is put up in the same way and so are string, beams. Peas cannot be packed; shake down very closely, put on the tops and proceed as for corn. COOKING HINTS. One yeast cake is equal to one teacupful of yeast, a measurement often used in the older much-prized ccoli books. Add a few nasturtium seeds to mixed pickle. or plain cucumber pickles; they will keep the vinegar clear as sherry. Keep a wire dishcloth to set in the J)ottbn of a kettle while cooking anything that may stick and burn. It will adapt itself to the shape of a kettle better than a trivet or a pail lid. Of course, it must be kept for this purpose exclusively. When you happen to have a few iablepsoonfuls of jam or jelly left over, try what a delicious addition it makes to baked apples, dropping a teaspoonful into the core of each apple before they go in the oven. EASE OF THE HOUSEHOLD. The wise man has ?aid: "There is a time for everything." Surely we ought to take time to make home cheerful and happy, and of the many things which tend toward doing this, nothing is more essential than tidy, cozy, pleasant living rooms. Here Is where the family meet iu the social circle; here the busy housewife sits after tho labors of the day are over; here is where friends are received who make an informal call. It should be made to reflect the hospitality, the taste, the love, the ease of the household, says the Ladies' World. Not a few sitting rooms are unlovely from a lack of artistic ornamentation. I do not mean that every housewife can, or should, even were her means sufficient, adorn her walls with paintings of the old masters, set up statues ia every niche and corner, and place Henri Deux ware on her manteltieces. . "Art," says a great critic, "is never more supreme than when it fashions from the commonest materials objects of the greatest beauty." It seems to me. an obvious truism that the beautiful is equally beautiful, however much or however little it may cost, and that tha lilies of the field, though every village child may pluck them, are yet arruyed in purer loveliness than an eastern emperor in all his glory. A vase of flowers in a room goes a long way in making it attractive. Mere pictures are nothing if not beautiful. RECIPES. Ham a la chaung dish. Melt in a chafing dish one tablespoonful of butter and half a glass of currant or other acid jelly; dust a little pepper over and when hot lay inthln slices of cold boiled ham; let boil up once and serve quickly on toast. Salsify Soup. Scrape one bunch of salsify, or oyster plant; cut It in slices and put it with two cupf'Us of boiling water into a stew pan and cook until tender; heat two level tablespoonfuls of butter, add to it three level tablespoonfuls of flour; stir this into the salsify and water and stir until boiling; add one bay leaf, a grating of nutmeg and three cloves; let simmer ten minutes longer; turn all into the strainer and rub salsify through. Return to the fire; add salt and pepper, on cupful of cream; bring to a boil and seTve. Fruit Puddings To one cupful of molasses add one cupful of chopped suet, one cupful of milk, three cupfuis of sifted flour, one teaspoon of cinnamon attd half a small nutmeg, grated; beat very thoroughly, then add one cup of stoned raisins, one cupful of currants well flouTed, half a cupful of, brandy, one teaspoon of salt and rwo letel teaspoonfuls of sugar; mix well;' turn into a greased mould or wet pudding cloth; allow room for swelling;' boll three hours, and serve with brandy sauce.

HOW TO KEEP WELL AND HAPPY. Some Confessions of a Midd!e-Accd Mau on the Subject. Now you want to know how an old fellow like me keeps himself well and happy. I should be Inclined therefore to answer the question that led to the writing of this letter by saying that "a man advancing in years," who wishes to exercise without being bored, should by all means provide himself wih some children the more the better! To teach your son to shoot, to pass a baseball with him, to play tennis or golf with him, or spar with him; to ride with the little daughter, and teach the big one to drive her ponies tandem; or to receive the open-eyed admiration of the small daughter, who still finds skating a sedentary occupation, at your mediocre ability to do the dutch-roll and the outside edge backward these are really the most refreshing exercises an old chap of "advancing years" can take. There is no question of being bored at such times. Next to playing with your children, a good form of exercise is walking. They say Saj-ers, one of the best oldtime pugilists in England, did all his training for his fights by walking. Take a long breath and walk gently as far as you can before exhaling. Do this again and again, and thus improve your wind, broaden your chest, and, best of ali, provide yourself with oxygen to ceep the vital fires going. In summer, by ail. means swim. It is probably the best all-round exercise there is. It is good for legs, arms, chest, lungs and heart; and the ocean, once you get to it, is free. If y-yi can go Avhere you can plunge in the "buff" just so much say 50 per cent at the least the better. By all means play golf. It is the best game there is. It has but one rival, and that is court tennis; but it beats court tennis in one essential particular, you can play it by an easy method of handicapping, with a poor player or a good player. Your real antagonist is a gutta-percha ball, which at times is possessed of seven devils, and you not only get a long walk, and exercise for your arms and shoulders, and capital training for your eyes, but you get a schooling in self-control which no other substitute, domestic or otherwise, can provide. I have been a fourth-:ate golf player now for ten years, and yet I never play a round of the game without being stimulated to hope that I may play better. It is like the mirage In the desert. No man ever played his best game, just as no man ver lived his best life; and we play on and live on, always in the hope that some day we may play or live our dream. Now that there are so many golf courses, some of them public courses, any man, even of moderate income, may play solf. Outing.
